Environmentally friendly technology is being used by industries all over the world, and engineers in the manufacturing and materials industry are embracing sustainable business models. In this paradigm, materials are processed using economically and environmentally sound methods. The use of microwave-absorbing materials (MAMs) in low-altitude observatory aircraft and the rise in electromagnetic pollution have brought them to light. The main aim of this study is to select an ideal MAM with excellent physical, electromagnetic, chemical, and thermal properties, which also fulfills sustainability aspects based on expert judgments. In this regard, we have proposed a new hybrid framework consisting of Modified Digital Logic (MDL), a subjective weighting method in combination with the measurement of alternatives and ranking according to compromise solution (MARCOS) under an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy (IVIF) environment to select an optimum MAM. Furthermore, this research work contributes to streamlining the selection process by consolidating the plethora of work available in the literature on the synthesis and characterization of MAMs. A database is created for 160 potential candidate materials in C, S, X, and Ku bands for carbon-based materials, including carbon nanotubes (CNT), graphene, reduced graphene oxide (rGO), carbon fibers, and biomass-derived materials. These materials are then passed through successive screening stages to shortlist 14 materials, which are ranked subsequently over a set of 15 crisp and ambiguous criteria. This comprehensive study simultaneously caters to quantitative and qualitative information extracted from experimental work, material resource packs, or expert evaluations. The findings highlight CNT/Fe (20 wt%, E) (Al1) as the most suitable candidate for MAM application with outstanding electromagnetic properties. Finally, the results are compared with extant approaches to check the reliability of the proposed framework. In addition, sensitivity analysis is carried out to establish the feasibility and robustness of the obtained results.

Plastic wastes were catalytically transformed into different structured carbons as effective catalysts for peroxymonosulfate activation to degrade organic pollutants in water and the catalytic conversion mechanism was comprehensively investigated. A salt template-based carbonization approach was successfully developed to catalytically converting high-density polyethylene (HDPE) into diverse carbon materials, such as core-shell carbon composites, nanosheets, and their hybrids. The morphology and proportions of structure defective carbon were found to be controlled by a NiCl2 to HDPE ratio. Carbon nanosheets performed excellent catalytic efficiency in peroxymonosulfate activation toward phenol oxidation, due to a high content of reactive defects via a nonradical electron-transfer mechanism. More importantly, deliberate experiment design and kinetic analyses were employed to illustrate the artifact of radical scavengers (e.g., ethanol) in mechanistic investigation for nonradical/radical reaction. This work provides an upcycle approach for waste plastics into carbocatalysts and new insight to the conversion process and advanced water purification.

Magnetic 2D-layered materials are promising for the applications of spintronic devices and compact magnetic devices. There are only a few reported intrinsic 2D-based magnetic materials. Therefore, introducing magnetic element into 2D-layered materials is an effective strategy to synthesize 2D-layered magnetic materials. Recently, ferromagnetism has been realized by doping single transition-metal or rare-earth element, whereas, there is no report by codoping of both transition-metal and rare-earth elements. Herein, Co and Nd are codoped into MoS2-layered crystals by ion implantation. An extremely high magnetization of 6916.3 emu cm-3 at 10 K and 80.3 emu cm-3 at 300 K is achieved. The high magnetization is attributed to the contribution from both transition-metal and rare-earth elements as well as defects, such as vacancy of cation ions, anions, or interstitials. Hence, herein, a useful strategy may be opened to develop high-performance magnetic materials based on 2D-layered materials.

Thin film epitaxy is essential for state-of-the-art semiconductor applications. The combination of different substrates and deposition methods leads to various crystallographic orientation relationships between thin films and substrates, which have a decisive impact on thin film performance. By utilizing pulsed laser deposition, we discovered a very high-index (7 1 ¯ 4) ¿oriented NiO thin film when deposited on r-plane (10 1 ¯ 2) sapphire substrates. The in-plane epitaxial relations are [13 1 ¯] NiO||[1 2 ¯ 10] Sapphire and [1 ¯ 12] NiO||[10 11 ¯] Sapphire , and the lattice mismatch is 3.2% and 0.4% along two directions, respectively. Exchange bias studies by the deposition of Co on NiO (111) and NiO (7 1 ¯ 4) show different behaviors, which may be associated with the spin density and alignment on the surface.

Graphitic carbon nitrides (g-C3N4) with unique physicochemical properties are promising candidates for photocatalysis applications. However, pristine g-C3N4 often suffers from narrow absorption ranges and high carrier recombination rates, which result in mediocre catalytic performance. In this work, we prepare novel sulfur-doped high nitrogen containing carbon nitrides, C3N5 (SCNs), with a combined thiadiazole, triazole, and triazine framework by facile self-assembly of 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol (5-ATDT). Their structural, morphological, and optical properties, and photocatalytic activities are investigated in detail. From density functional theory calculations and spectroscopic characterization studies, we construct thermodynamically stable molecular structures of SCNs composed of one triazole and two triazine moieties with small ratios of thiadiazole on the edge, in which the sulfur atoms are ionically connected with carbon/nitrogen atoms and gradually detached on increasing the calcination temperatures. Remarkably, the resultant SCNs exhibit a significantly enhanced H2-generation rate of 486 µmol g-1 h-1, about 60% higher than the average value derived from typical g-C3N4 synthesised by conventional precursors thanks to the enlarged light absorption range and enhanced charge carrier transfer rate. Our work provides a unique approach for designing novel sulfur-doped carbon nitrides with unprecedented functionalities.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) are constituting two new classes of highly crystalline advanced permeable materials that have purchased significant courtesy due to their incredible characteristic such as large surface area, highly ordered pores/channels, and controllable crystalline structure. However, the main hurdles to their various applications in photocatalytic activity and novel energy storage/conversion devices are their low structural stability and electrical conductivities. Therefore, substantial research has been directed to maximize their advantages and mitigate the shortcomings of these fascinating materials. In this review article, we first introduced the background and brief timeline of COF/MOF development and notable milestones followed by a systematic overview of the different synthetic procedures and recent achievements and milestones of their applications in CO2 reduction, hydrogen production, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), and supercapacitors (SCs). Finally, the challenges and future perspectives on further developing high-performance COF/MOF materials for photocatalysis and electrochemical energy storage application are discussed.

Biomass-derived nanoporous carbons (BNCs) are attractive materials for CO2 capture and energy storage due to their unique surface properties and the availability of low-cost and abundant supply of carbon sources. However, the order of the carbon atoms, the nature of the porosity and surface functional groups are critical in dictating the performance of BNCs for such applications. Herein, a solid-phase activation strategy is introduced to prepare O-functionalized BNCs with embedded graphene-like structures using D(+)-glucose as a precursor. The optimised material shows a high surface area (3572 m2 g-1), and surface oxygenated functional groups, which lead to a high CO2 adsorption of 5.28 mmol g-1 at 1 bar and 31.5 mmol g-1 at 30 bar at 0 °C. Moreover, as an electrode material, the optimised sample exhibits an impressive specific capacitance (Cs) of 305 F g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 and 207 F g-1 at 10 A g-1 in a three-electrode supercapacitor. It also shows high specific capacitance (250 F g-1 at 0.5 A g-1), a high energy density (58 Wh/kg), and stable cyclic performance in a two-symmetric electrode system. The presented materials and their application performance results are promising and could pave the way for the development of more sophisticated materials for CO2 capture, energy storage and beyond.

The catalytic membrane, which combines the physical barrier and peroxymonosulfate (PMS)/visible light (Vis)-induced catalytic oxidation functionalities while minimizing biofouling, exhibits great promise as a material for the removal of persistent organic pollutants from wastewater. In this study, three catalytic membranes composed of 2D/2D hybrid g-C3N4/kaolinite with nitrogen vacancies and modified with different iron species (¿-FeOOH nanosheets, Fe2O3 quantum dots, and Fe single atoms) were prepared via vacuum filtration. Evaluation of the catalytic performance demonstrated that ¿-FeOOH nanosheets-modified sample exhibited a relatively higher water flux (258.13 L m-2 h-1). In contrast, Fe single atom-modified sample achieved improved bisphenol A removal efficiency (97.39%) under the PMS/Vis synergetic system. Interestingly, the Fe2O3 quantum dots-modified sample exhibited the highest rate constant based on the retention time. Furthermore, the Fe single atom-modified sample showed consistent removal of bisphenol A, reaching nearly 100% during continuous-flow operation for 180 min, while maintaining a flux of approximately 200 L m-2 h-1. Quenching experiments suggested that ¿O2-, 1O2, and h+ were the most important oxidizing species involved in the reaction of the three membranes. Statistical analysis indicated that variations in the average pore size of the membranes were key factors influencing the catalytic activity. Overall, this study offers an in-depth insight into the systematic and quantitative assessment of 2D/2D hybrid g-C3N4/layered clay-based catalytic membranes for wastewater treatment.

Starting from sterically encumbered 2,6-di-tert-butylphenyl phosphate (dtbppH2) and co-ligand 3,5-dimethyl pyrazole (dmpz), it is possible to isolate either mono-, di- or tetranuclear copper phosphates by varying the copper source and making attendant changes in the reaction conditions. For example, reaction of copper nitrate with dtbppH2 and dmpz at 60 °C leads to the isolation of the mononuclear copper phosphate [Cu(dtbppH)2(dmpz)(MeOH)2] (1) as the only product. However, the use of copper acetate in place of copper nitrate and conducting the reaction at the room temperature leads to the formation of both dinuclear [Cu(dtbpp)(dmpz)2]2 (2) and tetranuclear [Cu2(dtbpp)(dmpz)2(OAc)(MeO)]2 (3) from the same reaction mixture. Compounds 2 and 3 could be isolated in pure form through fractional crystallization. Copper phosphates 1¿3 have been characterized by both analytical and spectroscopic methods including EPR and magnetic measurements. The molecular structures of all three compounds were established through single crystal diffraction studies. Dc magnetic measurements indicate antiferromagnetic interactions between the metal centres in all the compounds.

The rapid growth in electronic and portable devices demands safe, durable, light weight, low cost, high energy, and power density electrode materials for rechargeable batteries. In this context, biomass-based materials and their hybrids are extensively used for energy generation research, which is primarily due to their properties such as large specific surface area, fast ion/electron kinetics, restricted volume expansion, and restrained shuttle effect. In this review, the key advancements in the preparation of biomass derived porous carbons using different synthesis strategies and their modifications with species such as heteroatoms, metal oxides, metal sulfides, silicon, and other carbon forms are discussed. The electrochemical performances of these materials and the ion storage mechanisms in different batteries including lithium-ion, lithium¿sulfur, sodium-ion, and potassium-ion batteries are discussed. Special attention will be paid to the challenges in using porous biomass-derived carbons and the current strategies employed for maximizing the specific capacity and lifetime for battery applications. Finally, the drawbacks in current technology and endeavors for the future research and development in the field to catapult the performances of the biomass derived materials in order to equip them to meet the demands of commercialization are highlighted.

With the increase of energy crisis and greenhouse effect, the development of new photocatalytic systems with efficient solar-driven fuels/chemicals production is of great practical and scientific importance. In this scenario, single atom photocatalytic (SAP) systems are considered a significant breakthrough in the development of heterogeneous photocatalysis due to their superior catalytic efficiency, large surface area, and high atomic utilization. SAPs are consisting of isolated single atoms (SAs) distributed on/or coordinated with surface atoms of a suitable support. The anchoring of SAs on 2D substrates endows the developed SAPs with excellent properties, including high loading, uniform coordination, high light harvesting capability, and enhanced photocatalytic activities. Recently, many 2D substrates, including carbon materials, MXenes, and transition metal chalcogenides, have been used to anchor metal SAs for different photocatalytic applications. This review systematically discusses SAPs and the confining of metal SAs on 2D supports. Moreover, this review highlights the recent advances of SAPs for energy conversion, the existing challenges, and future perspectives. We expect that this review will offer some ideas for the future discovery of novel photocatalytic systems.

Porous carbons, owing to their fascinating properties, are materials of high interest in several fields including gas capture and energy storage. The conjugation of nanostructures such as BCN and surface functionalization is a creative approach to enhance their application potential. However, maintaining high porosity along with the creation of such features is rather complicated. Herein, we report on BCN conjugated nanoporous carbons with the high specific surface area through a unique approach of integrating the synthesis method of BCN and nanoporous carbon with chemical activation. In this approach, the high nitrogen containing precursor, aminoguanidine was mixed with boric acid, casein, and potassium acetate at 900 °C. The characterization data revealed the existence of BCN nanostructures in nanoporous carbon with a high specific surface area (2991 m2 g-1) and oxygen functional groups. The BCN content and the physicochemical properties of the hybrids can be easily tuned by varying the amount of AG in the synthesis mixture. The optimized sample exhibited a high CO2 adsorption capacity of 23.25 mmol g-1 at 0 °C and 30 bar and a high specific capacitance of 182.5 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 with exceptional stability and low resistance in a three-electrode supercapacitor system. The superior performance of synthesized materials for intended applications can be attributed to the synergetic effect of unique porous characteristics, BCN conjugation, and oxygen functionalization in nanoporous carbon. These exceptional results make this facile method of BCN conjugation of porous carbon a highly useful pathway to synthesize a variety of hybrid nanoporous carbon nanostructures for adsorption using such materials, the use of which can further be extended to more applications.

Due to its high energy density and non-polluting combustion, hydrogen has emerged as one of the most promising candidates for meeting future energy demands and realising a C-free world. However, the wider application of hydrogen is restricted by issues related to the generation, storage, and utilisation. Hydrogen production using steam reforming leads to CO2 emissions, storage of hydrogen requires extreme conditions, and utilisation of hydrogen needs to be highly efficient. Solid materials, can play significant roles in hydrogen sector as these materials are appropriate for the effective generation, storage, and utilisation of hydrogen. Their physical, chemical, thermal, and electronic properties can be easily manipulated to enhance their efficiencies in all three areas. In this review, various materials are described for the photocatalytic, electrocatalytic, and photoelectrocatalytic production, physisorption- and chemisorption-based storage, and utilisation of hydrogen in fuel cells; moreover, chemical and ammonia syntheses and steelmaking have been comprehensively discussed. Detailed insights and relevant comparisons are provided to demonstrate the efficacies of the abovementioned materials in the hydrogen sector. This broad overview of materials development will promote the hydrogen economy and inspire researchers and policymakers to appreciate the roles of materials and invest more in their research and development.

In this work, an efficient wide solar light-driven photocatalyst based on solar UV-blind ß-Ga2O3 quadrilateral nanorods (ß-GOR) has been modified with cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc). Guided by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experimental results, H-bond strengthened interfacial connection was established to purchase wide range of solar radiations and applied as an efficient photocatalysts for H2 evolution from water. The optimized 3CoPc/ß-GOR nanocomposite unveiled an unprecedented in the quantum efficiency (0.38%) at 660 nm excitation wavelength with outstanding structural stability compare to the pristine solar UV-blind ß-GOR (0%). The much extended photoactivities are accredited to the formation of strong H-bond between CoPc and ß-GOR, that accelerated charge transformation as confirmed from Bader charge/work function analysis, activation of O2, wide visible-light absorption, as well as joint DFT and experimental results. We believe that this system will also work for other metal phthalocyanines such as ZnPc, NiPc and HPc together with ß-GOR towards next-generation efficient photocatalysts with wide-visible light response.

Porous carbon materials with tunable micro and mesoporous structure, graphitic wall structure, and enhanced layer spacing are considered attractive materials for several applications, including adsorption and energy storage and conversion. However, it is challenging to design porous carbon with all these properties in a single system. Here, we present a facile and rational synthesis route to fabricate graphitized porous biocarbon nanosheets from a low-cost precursor through a simple integration of simultaneous ¿activation and graphitization¿ process using iron acetate and potassium acetate at a high temperature. The prepared materials show tunable micro and mesoporosity with an enhanced layer spacing and high crystallinity. These sophisticated materials exhibit a smooth switch over the micro and mesopores for either low (5.9 mmol g-1/ 0 °C/ 1 bar) or high pressure (16.7 mmol g-1/ 0 °C/ 30 bar) CO2 capture. The careful manipulation of the porous texture and the graphitization degree also allows for enhanced performance as LIB anodes (646 mAh g-1), which show good cycling and surpass the specific capacity of conventional graphite anode (372 mAh g-1). These findings exemplify the importance of designing intriguing materials for addressing climate change by reducing greenhouse gases as well as providing low-cost alternative energy storage resources.

We report an integrated approach by combining in-situ activation, doping and natural nanotemplating to design low-cost and highly efficient N-doped nanoporous carbons for energy storage and carbon capture applications. N-doped nanoporous carbons are prepared by impregnating sucrose, 3-amino 1,2,4-triazole and the ZnCl2 into the nanochannels of the mixed kaolin-halloysite nanotube nanoclay, followed by carbonization and clay template removal. The prepared materials exhibit micro and mesoporosity, high specific surface areas (1360¿1695 m2 g-1), and nitrogen content (7.73¿12.34 wt%). The optimized material offers the specific capacitance of 299 F g-1 (0.3 A g-1) and 134 F g-1 (10 A g-1) with excellent cycling stability (91% capacity retention after 4000 cycles/5 A g-1). N-doping together with the interconnected micro and mesoporous structure, offers a more ion accessible surface and further provides enhanced charge transfer, hydrophilicity, and the interaction of the electrode-electrolyte ions. The optimized material adsorbs 24.4 mmol g-1 of CO2 at 30 bar pressure and 0 °C. The synthesized materials performed better as supercapacitor and CO2 adsorbent than halloysite clay, kaolin clay, activated carbon, nanoporous carbons, and mesoporous silica. The method presented here will provide a unique platform for synthesizing a series of advanced nanostructures for electrochemical and carbon capture applications.

The accumulation of waste plastics has caused serious environmental issues due to their unbiodegradable nature and hazardous additives. Converting waste plastics to different carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) is a promising approach to minimize plastic pollution and realize advanced manufacturing of CNMs. The reported plastic-derived carbons include carbon filaments (i.e. carbon nanotubes and carbon nanofibers), graphene, carbon nanosheets, carbon sphere, and porous carbon. In this review, we present the influences of different intrinsic structures of plastics on the pyrolysis intermediates. We also reveal that non-charring plastics are prone to being pyrolyzed into light hydrocarbons while charring plastics are prone to being pyrolyzed into aromatics. Subsequently, light hydrocarbons favor to form graphite while aromatics are inclined to form amorphous carbon during the carbon formation process. In addition, the conversion tendency of different plastics into various morphologies of carbon is concluded. We also discuss other impact factors during the transformation process, including catalysts, temperature, processing duration and templates, and reveal how to obtain different morphological CNMs from plastics. Finally, current technology limitations and perspectives are presented to provide future research directions in effective plastic conversion and advanced CNM synthesis.

Graphene, sp2-hybridized miracle material of 21st century possesses extra-ordinary physico-chemical properties and hence inspires several salient frontline applications. Lack of magnetic ordering limits its dream spintronic chips applications. Phosphorus and sulfur being large and electron-rich atoms, if adequately doped to graphene, will enable carrier injection (worth for electronic chips) and net spin-polarized electrons (worth for spintronic chips) in it. However, in-plane (preferentially) ultra-doping of graphene by phosphorus and sulfur is extremely challenging by conventional techniques. We report microwave doping of graphene by phosphorus and sulfur atoms up to record doping level of 15 and 12.5 % respectively which render graphene room temperature ferromagnetism with a saturation magnetization as high as 0.13 emu/g and 0.15 emu/g for phosphorus and sulfur doping ¿respectively¿. Spin-polarized DFT band structure calculations suggest vivid spin asymmetry caused by doping which supports our experimental findings of primarily graphitic doped samples. Microwave doping of graphene by phosphorus and sulfur brings in dramatic changes in its magnetic behaviour and thus the present research establishes it as a novel doping strategy with excellent efficiency, scalability, and reproducibility, and will inspire new generations of graphene-based spintronic chips.

Metal-semiconductor diodes constructed from two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals heterostructures show excellent gate electrostatics and a large built-in electric field at the tunnel junction, which can be exploited to make highly sensitive photodetector. Here we demonstrate a metal-semiconductor photodiode constructed by the monolayer graphene (Gr) on a few-layer black phosphorus (BP). Due to the presence of a built-in potential barrier (~0.09 ± 0.03 eV) at the Gr-BP interface, the photoresponsivity of the Gr-BP device is enhanced by a factor of 672%, and the external quantum efficiency (EQE) increases to 648% from 84% of the bare BP. Electrostatic gating allows the BP channel to be switched between p-type and n-type conduction. We further demonstrate that excitation laser power can be used to control the current polarity of the Gr-BP device due to photon-induced doping. The versatility of the Gr-BP junctions in terms of electrostatic bias-induced or light-induced switching of current polarity is potentially useful for making dynamically reconfigurable digital circuits.

We demonstrate a synthesis of copper nanoparticles decorated over nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon with different N and Cu contents which exhibit conducting, redox, basic, adsorption, and excellent textural properties. These materials are prepared through a nanotemplating approach by simultaneously encapsulating sucrose, guanidine hydrochloride, and Cu(NO3)2 into the porous channels of mesoporous SBA-15 at a low carbonization temperature of 600 °C. The prepared materials exhibit an ordered mesoporous carbon framework with bimodal pores, decorated with nitrogen and Cu functionalities on the surface of the pores and in the wall structure. The presence of nitrogen functionalities in the porous carbon matrix not only helps to reduce the Cu ions but also stabilizes the nanoparticles and offers redox sites, which are beneficial for adsorption and electrochemical applications. The optimized sample exhibits the highest adsorption capacity of different gases such as CO2 ¿ 22.5 mmol/g at 273 K, H2 -13.5 mmol/g at 77 K at 30 bar and CH4 - 5 mmol/g at 298 K and 50 bar. We also demonstrate that the prepared material shows a high selectivity of adsorption towards CO2 in a mixture of CO2/H2 and CO2/CH4 and it also registers a high supercapacitance of 209 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1 with excellent cyclic stability.

The coupling of optical and electronic degrees of freedom together with quantum confinement in low-dimensional electron systems is particularly interesting for achieving exotic functionalities in strongly correlated oxide electronics. Recently, high room-temperature mobility has been achieved for a large bandgap transparent oxide ¿ BaSnO3 upon extrinsic La or Sb doping, which has excited significant research attention. In this work, we report the realization of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) on the surface of transparent BaSnO3 via oxygen vacancy creation, which exhibits a high carrier density of ~7.72 × 1014 cm-2 and a high room-temperature mobility of ~18 cm2·V-1·s-1. Such a 2DEG is rather sensitive to strain and a less than 0.1% in-plane biaxial compressive strain leads to a giant resistance enhancement of ~350% (more than 540 kO/¿) at room temperature. Thus, this work creates a new path to exploring the physics of low-dimensional oxide electronics and devices applicable at room temperature.

In order to overcome the current energy and environment crisis caused by fossil fuels depletion and greenhouse gas emission, it is indispensable to introduce new, eco-friendly, high-performance materials into energy conversion and storage applications. 2D transition metal oxides (TMOs) are regarded as the promising candidates due to their excellent electrochemical properties. However, their innate poor electronic conductivity greatly restricts their applications in energy conversion and storage. This review discusses and summarizes the developed strategies to overcome the limitation through surface modification including defect engineering, heteroatom incorporation and interlayer doping, as well as hybridization with conductive materials. In addition, a detailed summary of their synthesis and applications in supercapacitors, lithium ion batteries and electrocatalysis is included. Finally, future prospective such as opportunities and challenges is discussed for the successful implementation of 2D TMOs in the field of energy applications.

Here we report on the synthesis of highly ordered nanoporous carbon decorated with CaF2 nanoclusters along the pore wall structure using dairy milk as a carbon and calcium source through nano-hard templating approach wherein mesoporous silica SBA-15 with different pore diameters are used as template. CaF2 is introduced during the removal process of silica template and can help to enhance the charge transfer. Nitrogen adsorption results reveal that the prepared materials exhibit high specific surface area with bimodal porous structures which act as a media for the rapid ion transports through the regular and interconnected micro- and mesoporous structure. The mesoporous carbon samples also exhibit hexagonally ordered pores with rod shaped morphology, which is similar to that of the template, confirming that the templating process is successful. Finally, the optimised electrode is highly stable and offers the capacitance of 182 F g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 with almost 100% retention rate even after 5000 cycles due to a strong intimate coupling generated by the CaF2 nanoclusters within the wall structure. The electrode performance of milk derived carbon samples is much better than that of activated carbon, multiwalled carbon nanotubes and the mesoporous carbons without CaF2.

Copper iodide (CuI) is a promising p-type wide bandgap semiconductor for optoelectronic and thermoelectric applications. Its p-type conductivity is due to the existence of native defect copper vacancy (VCu). We report the effect of native defects on microstructural, optical, and thermoelectric properties of ion beam sputtered CuI films via vacuum annealing. X-ray diffraction results showed that the CuI film is a ¿-phase with zinc blende crystal structure, further confirmed by Raman spectroscopy analysis. Cu-rich region was observed in vacuum-annealed films by cross-section transmission electron microscopy and element mapping, while as-deposited film is very uniform. As-deposited film exhibited an electrical conductivity s = 22.9 S cm-1, hole density p = 3.3 × 1019 cm-3, hole mobility µp = 4.3 cm2 V-1 s-1, and the Seebeck coefficient a = 244.9 µV K-1 which yielded a power factor of a2s = 137.8 µW m-1 K-2, whereas vacuum annealing led to the large increase in Seebeck coefficient a = 561.8 µV K-1 and a strongly increased power factor, a2s = 443.5 µW m-1 K-2 along with the slightly decreased conductivity, s = 14.0 S cm-1 when the film was annealed at 100 °C. The increase in Seebeck coefficient is attributed to the decrease in hole density along with energy-dependent scattering of charge carriers at the grain boundaries between CuI and Cu-rich region. The decreased hole density is due to the formation of less VCu in high vacuum annealing condition. In addition, the film exhibited 60¿85% transmission in the visible region. The results demonstrated that by a simple vacuum annealing, a high performance transparent thermoelectric material could be achieved, which provides a simple strategy for improving the properties of thermoelectric materials.

Various concentrations (0, 0.5, 1, and 5 at%) of Nd are doped into MoS2 single crystals via ion implantation. Experimental results reveal that Nd exists in the form of trivalent state when the doping concentration is below 5 at% and a variety of defects, such as sulfur and molybdenum vacancies, are formed in Nd-doped MoS2. Compared to pure MoS2 that only shows diamagnetism, Nd doping successfully induces room-temperature ferromagnetic ordering. Extremely high magnetization (1640¿emu¿cm-3) is observed in 1 at% Nd-doped MoS2. First-principles density functional theory calculations suggest that the various structural defects, including substitutions, vacancies, interstitials, antisites, and their complexes, are magnetic possessing large spin moments. The defects coupled with Nd dopants ferromagnetically may form the bound magnetic polarons to induce ferromagnetic ordering. The work has demonstrated that through defects engineering and rare earth element doping, extremely high magnetization materials can be achieved in layered structured materials. On the other hand, though the experiment work is done by implanting MoS2 single crystals, theoretical calculations indicate that 2D MoS2 with bilayers or a few layers can also result in ultrahigh magnetization.

In this investigation, a hybrid of metal sulfide and carbon nitride (CN) is synthesized by in-situ chemical conversion between metallic species and a single precursor of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur elements through a strong p-d conjugation approach. It is observed that the local chemical alteration in the vicinity of N atom in the CN template triggers the formation of a highly p-conjugated CN system and efficient p-d hybridization at heterointerface. This is accelerated by partial substitution of the Fe atom for Mn ions in the MnS phase which significantly enhances the battery performance, delivering 2031 mA h g-1 after 500 cycles with inverse capacity growth. Via systematic in-depth characterizations, it is found that the gradual increase of Li-ion diffusion coefficients and charge transfer kinetics for repeated cycling is ascribed to the highly dispersed and uniform particles that are confined within the CN template through a strong p-d hybridization.

Electrocatalysis plays a major role in the development of clean and sustainable energies. For efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in water splitting, active, robust, and cost-effective catalysts are highly desired. Here, we present a facile approach to fabricate 1T-phase dominant V-doped MoS2 nanosheets which can be easily grown on carbon paper at a large scale. The 5 at.% V-doped MoS2 nanosheets achieve excellent catalytic performance, showing more than 10-fold increase of current density compared with 2H MoS2 and a surprisingly low onset potential of 102 mV vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). Moreover, it exhibits good catalytical stability in both acidic and alkaline solutions. The remarkable HER performance mainly attributes to the synergistic effects of the modified structure of MoS2 with enhanced active sites, increased electrical conductivity, optimised energy level and near-zero Gibbs free energy of hydrogen binding. This work may shed light on achieving highly efficient electrocatalysts toward practical applications.

Thermal decomposition in solution is the most effective approach for achieving highly monodisperse iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs). However, a simple, economical, and environment-friendly iron precursor with high iron content remains in great demand. Although siderite (FeCO3) has been reported to produce iron oxide particles via calcination, it is difficult to control the shapes of the obtained particles compared to those obtained by solution methods. Herein, FeCO3 was employed as a precursor in solution thermal decomposition to prepare monodisperse IONPs and investigated the influence of reaction conditions on the particle size, including the concentration of oleic acid, concentration of the precursor, and the reaction temperature. The seed-mediated growth method with FeCO3 as a precursor was also studied to extend the scope of particle size. The experimental results demonstrate that high-quality IONPs can be synthesized in solution via FeCO3 thermal decomposition. The particle diameter was tuned between 3 and 20¿nm by varying the reaction conditions, and by seed-mediated growth. FeCO3 is thus a readily available, economical, environment-friendly precursor with high iron content, which is a novel candidate for the synthesis of IONPs.

One of the most attractive features of magnetic ferrite nanoparticles (MFNPs) in biomedical application is that they can mediate external magnetic field to produce local magnetic field, magnetic thermal and magnetic force effects. These generated effects can later be utilized in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. The application performance is mainly determined by the nano-magnetism of MFNPs. Therefore, by modulating the magnetic properties, the improved magnetic resonance (MR) signals, magnetothermal, and magnetomechanical effects of the MFNPs can be achieved. In this review, we summarize the strategies used in the engineering of MFNPs to enhance MR imaging sensitivity and magnetic thermal conversion efficiencies. We will also discuss the detailed magnetoresponsive mechanism arising from the critical magnetic properties of MFNPs. Furthermore, we will highlight the recent progresses of the engineered MFNPs in biomedical applications, with emphasis in MR signal amplification, magnetothermal, and magnetomechanical response in biomedical applications.

Weak magnetic field sensors have always been an area of great interest due to their immense potential applications in a wide array of fields such as magnetic anomaly detectors (MAD) in defence-related industry or bio-magnetic field sensors in biomedical industry. The performance of such sensors greatly depends on the magnetic softness of the sensing elements. Thus, optimisation of the post-heat treatment process is crucial as it serves to release stresses induced during the deposition process. In this study, furnace annealing was carried out on Ni80Fe20/Cu composite wires at a range of annealing temperatures from 210°C-1,050°C. Inter-diffusion of Ni and Cu was observed at annealing temperature of 350°C, with the diffusion effect more pronounced at elevated annealing temperatures. This diffusion effect, coupled with increases in the surface roughness and average grain sizes as the annealing temperature was increased, resulted in the deterioration of magnetic properties and sensing performance of the composite wires, as indicated by the increase in coercivity, decrease in magneto-impedance (MI) effect and decrease in sensitivity.

The present study reports room-temperature ferromagnetic behaviors in three-dimensional (3D)- aligned thiol-capped single-crystalline ZnO nanowire (NW) and nanotube (NT) arrays as well as polycrystalline ZnO NT arrays. Besides the observation of height-dependent saturation magnetization, a much higher Ms of 166 µemu cm -2 has been found in NTs compared to NWs (36 µemu cm -2) due to larger surface area in ZnO NTs, indicating morphology-dependent magnetic properties in ZnO NW/NT systems. Density functional calculations have revealed that the origin of ferromagnetism is mainly attributed to spin-polarized 3p electrons in S sites and, therefore, has a strong correlation with Zn-S bond anisotropy. The preferential magnetization direction of both single-crystalline NTs and NWs lies perpendicular to the tube/wire axis due to the aligned high anisotropy orientation of the Zn-S bonds on the lateral (100) face of ZnO NWs and NTs. Polycrystalline ZnO NTs, however, exhibit a preferential magnetization direction parallel to the tube axis which is ascribed to shape anisotropy dominating the magnetic response. Our results demonstrate the interplay of morphology, dimensions, and crystallinity on spin alignment and magnetic anisotropy in a 3D semiconductor nanosystem with interfacial magnetism. © 2010 American Chemical Society.

In this work, the substrate grain size effect on the deposition of Ni79Fe21 film by electroplating has been studied. The morphology, surface roughness, particle size and magnetic properties of the deposited films are investigated in detail. The investigation shows that the grain size of the deposited films scales with the increase of the substrate grain size. It has shown that the surface roughness of the substrate is of importance. The smoother the substrate surface, the smaller the surface roughness and material coercivity of the deposited Ni79Fe21 film. This study indicates that the smoothness and uniformity of the substrate surface are important parameters to be taken into account during electroplating. Under such consideration, Ni81Fe19/Cu composite wire has been deposited by sputtering a layer of Cu on the Cu substrate surface to improve Cu wire surface smoothness and uniformity. It is found that with the sputtered Cu layer, the GMI effect of the deposited Ni81Fe19/Cu composite wire has been significantly increased. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
